Windows 11 Pro
Location grayed out on 3 win 11 machines that were updated ? from Win 10. Only on one can update default location can be changed. The other two nothing happens when I click the box. On one I changed to default every GPedit setting I changed. They have mostly the same programs installed and one MS store Weather app. I have spent TOO much time searching so came here in case the GURUs know something I couldn't find.
Any help would be appreciated before I try a clean install YUK YUK

Thanks

N.Korea or Russia perhaps !!!

Just being a bit facetious there - but location should work whatever language you use to install Windows and wherever you are on the planet (with probably those minor above listed exceptions).

Even Iran works these days if you want to test it - but don't try and find a nice sports bar selling cheap beer in the middle of Tehran just yet. !!!

Cheers
